GRIZZLIES FACE MSJ IN HOMECOMING CLASH
Franklin football celebrates Homecoming this weekend when it welcomes HCAC rival Mount St. Joseph to Faught Stadium. The Lions have won the last seven meetings, including a 52-21 victory last year, to even the all-time series between the two schools at 15-15.

BACK IN THE SADDLE
Junior quarterback Marshall Kmiecik, who had missed the Grizzlies' Week 3 home game against Calvin with an injury, returned to action last week at Rose-Hulman and threw for a season-best 423 yards and four touchdowns. Kmiecik also rushed for 58 yards and a score. Franklin had a pair of 100-yard receivers in the game, with Isaiah Miller catching eight passes for 120 yards and Owen Wright gaining 133 yards on five grabs.

QUITE A 1-2 PUNCH
Griz linebackers Drew Servies and Brayden Baker come into the week ranked in the top two spots in the HCAC in total tackles. Servies leads the way with 45 total stops, while Baker ranks second with 36 after collecting a game-high 15 last week. Both are part of a three-way tie atop the conference at 22 solo tackles. Servies, however, is expected to miss Saturday's game due to injury.

CATCH THE GRIZ ON INDIANA SRN
Indiana SRN is carrying all six Franklin College home games this season. Each game will be shown free of charge on HCAC.tv and IndianaSRN.org, and games will be archived upon completion so that fans can watch back at any time.

AROUND THE HCAC
Elsewhere in conference play on Saturday afternoon, Bluffton travels to Manchester and Anderson visits Rose-Hulman. Reigning HCAC champ Hanover takes its turn stepping out of the league rotation, traveling to Wilmington for an evening showdown.
